By 2020, at least one in four children in the state will be Hispanic, figures suggest.
The face of Oklahoma's children is changing.
The makeup of the state's young population is changing from mostly white to frequently Hispanic, and if the pace continues, at least a quarter of Oklahoma children by the year 2020 will be Hispanic.
The number of Hispanic youths in Oklahoma has increased by more than 32 percent since 2000, while the population of non-Hispanic youths decreased by 2.6 percent, according to recent data from the U.S. Census Bureau.
''I see everything changing,'' said Nilda Reyes, director of equity and diversity at Tulsa Public Schools.
The recent Census report showed an obvious increase in the state's Hispanic population overall, about 38 percent. At the same time, the number of non-Hispanic people in Oklahoma increased by just 1.8 percent.
A Tulsa World analysis of the Census figures shows the Hispanic growth is even heavier in the youngest age groups.

Yes, I know, the article doesn't differentiate between legal and illegal, but as a resident of Tulsa, I'll guarantee most are illegal.
That statement will work for every state in the Union, especially her in MO..
Somehow, I’m having a hard time picturing them with mullets or referring to them as redmex.
If I wanted to live in Mexico, I would move there.
You speak the truth. It’s happening in EVERY state.

Projected Population Growth of US by Race and Origin 2000-2050--Bureau of the Census
As the invasion continues, life as we know it will change and our way of life and the American culture will be gone.
Since it is the DUTY of Congress under Article I, Section 8 “To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;” And since we have been and are being invaded by illegal aliens why are they not following their oath of office?
There are small and large cities in the United States where the American Language is no longer spoken and unless you speak Span-ish you will be denied work. Do you not see every day the big retailers placing signs in Span-ish in their stores so that one does not know what one is buying unless you have an interpretor or a book with you.
The invasion is taking hold just as it did in Rome and the barbarians will destroy our nation and its way of life and the Congress like the Senate of Rome is doing nothing to keep us free. They are keeping their ROYAL Butts in their limos and names in the NYTs and Wasnington Post by supporting the invasion.
We have elected cowards and traitors to the US Senate and House and no one seems to care so the invasion will continue especially if the left wins the total election in 2008 when they will make the laws that will make this the Democratic United States of Mexico.
Idon’t care if half of the population is Latino. If they’ve come here legally and are English speaking Americans what’s the problem?
They didn't come legally (most) and they don't and won't speak English. That is the problem.
I think by definition, ethnic cleansing must involve genocide or the displacement of an ethnicity. More hispanics moving into town isn’t the same as marching anglos out of town at gunpoint.
You might as well call it a white holocaust as long as we’re diluting serious concepts into meaningless buzzwords.
2000 was a very long time ago...
And you don’t think it is ‘displacement of an ethnicity’? Then you don’t live anywhere near where I live. That’s okay, it is coming to where you live soon.
If they came here illegally and they don’t speak English (or at least trying to learn) then they should not be here.
